How long does it take to make a card game with magic?

In ancient times, it took at least several years or even decades to build a bridge across the river. From the excavation of raw materials to the processing, transportation and labor costs were also considered after the processing. Therefore, the great wall and pyramids, which were almost impossible to build in ancient times, were famous for thousands of years.

In modern times, if you want to build a pyramid is much more convenient, factory mechanical processing, train and ship transportation, a large number of machinery uninterrupted operation.

It's the same with using magic to create a game. Magic is a pronoun of impossibility. Compared with the earth, modern game making technology is just like the difference between ancient and modern. In the eyes of high-level casters, creating a game is no more complicated than completing a magic project, while in the eyes of human casters, it is almost impossible to complete a magic project. In the eyes of white dragon Simpson, the difficulty is almost equal to passing through the dark legend.

White dragon Simpson is a domain level caster. When it is really interested in something and can't wait to participate in it, it drives white dragon workshop to run at a high speed just like an engine.

The information crystal contains all the information content of the legend of hearthstone that Harvey has been pondering for several days. Although Harvey is not a loyal player of the legend of hearthstone, he has been infatuated with the game for some time. Because of his work, he has been out of the pit for some time and encountered a card withdrawal environment. After that, Harvey often watches some anchors play hearthstone, Some wonderful excerpts of hearthstone are compulsory lessons every week, so the effect of hearthstone legend card is still impressive.

There are thousands of cards of nine professions recorded in the information crystal. These cards are the mainstream cards in the legend of hearthstone. Different combinations can play different roles. After all, the legend of hearthstone has been in operation for many years, and the problems left over by history have led to a lot of waste cards. It is not necessary to add this waste card for the time being.

Dark legend is based on the legend of hearthstone. It's not only about changing the skin, but also optimizing the overall environment and card effect of the game. Harvey doesn't want to pursue absolute balance, because it's boring in card games. This is where Harvey can't understand Blizzard's game production company most. He blindly pursues the so-called competitiveness and reduces the gameplay, I don't know that a game in which luck accounts for the majority of the winning factors is a very stupid thing to toss about fairness itself.

Harvey's game balance is more inclined to the mutual restraint between cards. The nine different ranks restrain each other, and can produce butterfly effect due to different card effects.

In the legend of hearthstone, the most classic form of restraint is the triangle relationship. The fast attack card group restrains the late card group, the medium speed card group restrains the fast card group, and the late card group restrains the medium speed card group. The three form a stable triangle restraint relationship. In addition, there are some unstable card series, such as xingjiede, which is a great test of luck, Once you're lucky, you can hang all the cards directly. If you're not lucky, you'll be hanged by all the cards.

Each class can form a completely different card set system to ensure the appearance rate of each class. Harvey also added hundreds of self created cards according to his own unique idea. For the time being, I don't know what effect it will cause. This requires players to test their feedback.

In white dragon workshop, Harvey stares at the process of white dragon Simpson's "creation" game. He can only see the blue light passing by. Countless overlapping magic arrays form a complex magic array system. Harvey doubts whether he is a fake caster, otherwise he can't understand the process of white dragon Simpson's casting at all.

In less than one day, white dragon Simpson completed most of the work of "dark legend". Yes, it only took less than one day to "extract" the game that Blizzard game company on earth spent several years and the whole game project team elaborately polished.

The first is the calculation system of the game. Legend of the dark is based on a rigorous mathematical calculation system. The effect of cards is the result of mathematical calculus. Obviously, the logic calculation system which is not complicated in the eyes of ordinary people is hard to defeat a high-level caster.

The second is the framework of the game. White dragon Simpson has studied the little overlord series and the game crystal thoroughly for a long time. In terms of creativity, Harvey may not be as good as Harvey, but Harvey has written out the framework of the game. In terms of practical ability, the caster is thousands of times better than Harvey.

Two of the three elements of "Legend of darkness" were easily completed, but the last one, which seems to be the easiest project in Blizzard's game project team, baffled white dragon Simpson.

That is the art setting. Harvey described the scene and character effect of each card in detail, but without the art paintings Harvey brought as a reference, even the experienced Dreiser took more than half a day to design a card face.

Always can't write the name on the card to fool in the past, so playing with no sense of substitution and pleasure.

Harvey takes the game crystal from white dragon Simpson, sinks into the interior and receives a large amount of content from the game crystal. The content in the game crystal is overhauled based on PVE mode. When Harvey sinks into the interior of the crystal, he sees two different cards, which are marked with stars.

[adventure mode]

[confrontation mode]

Choose adventure mode to enter PVE mode, and choose confrontation mode to experience new content.

Harvey's mind moved. The confrontation mode option displayed in the game crystal moved slightly, indicating that Harvey chose this option. The scene is abrupt and changeable. The screen shows a very simple game interface. On a wooden box, there are four options: combat mode, entertainment mode, practice mode and competitive mode. Harvey continues to choose the practice mode. The screen has no special effects. In the practice mode, all cards are described in words, which is very strange.

Because the attack and effect data of PVE mode and PvP mode are not common, it is not appropriate to apply the cards of PVE mode to PVP mode.

As Harvey expected, the PVP mode of dark legend is not even a semi-finished product, but Harvey has been shocked. He originally estimated that it would take at least a month for white dragon workshop to achieve this level.

Harvey can only infect magic in his heart.

"It's worthy of your honor, Mr. Simpson. Generally speaking, there is no big problem. The most urgent task is to make magic models and fill the card surface effect. There is no need to worry about the magic model for the time being. After all, the magic model is only used on [gold card], and it does not affect the performance of the game. " Harvey handed the crystal game to the members of white dragon workshop. They all looked like curious babies. Before white dragon Simpson made the specific game, they didn't know the true face of the game.

White dragon Simpson smashed his mouth, and his tone revealed a sense of reluctance: "although I have lived for many years, seen a lot of things, especially magic, it is not easy to make more than 2000 cards similar to the dark legend in a short time."

Dreiser nodded and said seriously, "more than 2000 cards... It's a big project. How about entrusting this part of the work to the magic workshop?"

"Magic workshop?"

"Yes, it's also a kind of magic workshop. It's usually responsible for making magic models used by professors. In some holidays, it's also responsible for making some magic models. For example, one month ago, at the Fire Dragon Festival of Clark College, the magic model with a body length of more than ten meters was made by a magic workshop of Clark College, However, the magic association has little demand for magic workshops. This type of workshop is similar to our white dragon workshop in nature. It is difficult to find a workshop that can complete our commission. "

Harvey looked at Dina, who was carefully preparing to contact the game crystal. He remembered that she had learned magic when introducing herself. He politely asked, "Dina, I remember you are one of the students in the magic department."

Dinah quickly took back her hand, blushed like a frightened fawn, lowered her head and stammered, "yes... Yes, Mr. Adrian, I'm... I'm mainly responsible for assisting Dreiser in making magic models."

"Don't be nervous. Answer slowly." Harvey a generous smile: "so Clark College interested in magic many people?"

Dinah took hold of the corner of the robe, rubbed it, and shook her head: "there are very few magic apprentices in the magic department. I don't know more than 50."

"You don't have to be proficient. It's enough to perform some common magic. Are there many students like that?"

When Dreiser thought of something, he nodded hard and interrupted: "there are many magic apprentices like this. Although magic is not a major subject, many students will choose to study magic in order to get credits."

Finally, Harvey turned his eyes to white dragon Simpson. He understood Harvey's meaning and narrowed his eyes to reply: "the credits a professor has are not unlimited. There are fixed scores for each semester. If a professor wants to grant more credits to students, he needs to use contribution points to exchange."

"Madeleine." Everyone's eyes turned to Madeleine again, because she was responsible for the statistics of white dragon workshop's revenue.

"Our net profit this month is 55324 points."

Fifty thousand contribution points! This is almost equal to the total salary of white dragon Simpson as a professor of the college for ten years!

"So much!? Isn't our workshop in crisis? " O'nein's eyes widened, his face was unbelievable, and his breath became heavy when he heard the specific numbers. He owned the shares of white dragon workshop, and he could get thousands of contribution points after sharing, which was more profitable than his magic family in a month. It was a profiteering industry, which was much higher than writing a magic paper!

Madeleine raised her golden hair in her right hand and snorted: "because this month is the selling month of dark legend. Most of them are for profit before. Maybe there won't be so many next month."

Harvey nodded, "is it OK for everyone to divide part of their contribution according to the proportion and use it to hire students?"

"Yes!"

"Of course."

The white dragon Simpson was still a little reluctant. He looked at the game crystal beside him, and his sharp claws crossed the scales of his chin. He thought: "although it's very troublesome, it seems that there is no better choice. He asked a giant dragon to hand over his property. It's a long life."

If you entrust the card design work of dark legend to the magic apprentice and magic workshop of Clark College, there may be different styles and quality, but it is also better than the visual effect described by words.

Otherwise, what's the difference between a card game without pictures and a math problem?
